Replacing Pawls

Make sure the teeth of the pawls are always
sharp. If they become dull the pawls must be
replaced:

1. Use 7/16" wrench to remove hex nut.
Remove old pawls.

2. Install new pawls. Place spacers exactly
as shown.

3. Re-install hex nut.

4. Check that pawls work freely.

Lubricating Blade Guard Assembly

If guard becomes difficult to raise:

1. Clean sawdust from the slot and slider.

2. Regrease with a small amount of light
grease applied to the slot and slider. Also
add a thin coat of grease between the Trig-
ger and the Pull Link.

Adjusting the Trigger

If the trigger becomes loose side-to-side,
adjust the setscrews at the top of the yoke
handle. Use a 1/8" hex wrench to tighten set-
screws tight. Then back off one setscrew
until the trigger moves freely.
